Precast Concrete Barriers


A Variety of Concrete Barriers are Available in California for Highway & Military Applications
K-Rail concrete barriers are used primarily on the highway as a buffer from traffic for construction projects. K-Rail is the standard for concrete temporary barrier for The California Department of Transportation (Cal Trans). K-rail is sometimes left in place at the completion of the construction projects. K-Rail is also used in landslide areas to protect the roadway. There are many other concrete barriers of different sizes & shapes available in Southern California.
Pro-Cast Products, Inc. in Highland California (San Bernardino County) makes a variety of concrete barriers & security barriers ranging from parking bumpers to the 32” tall k-rail, 5’ high Colorado barrier, 6’ 8” tall Texas T & 10’ tall Alaska barrier. These barriers are used on highways & for military applications. Some of the barrier shapes are similar to barriers made for the war theatre in Iraq. Pro-Cast also manufactures sound & noise barriers including a sound absorbing wall. Pro-Cast manufactures custom concrete barriers as they did for the Victoria Ave Bridge in Riverside. http://procastproducts.com/
